Snap!
Zhou Ziqin put down the phone receiver!
She supported herself on the table with both hands, took deep breaths, and tried her best to calm herself down.
It has already happened, and being angry, scared, crying, etc. will not help.
No chaos!
Qingcheng is ill, my parents are old, and I am the only one left at home. I absolutely cannot cause chaos due to my excessive concern!
Thinking of her ignorant parents-in-law, Zhou Ziqin felt more and more eager to calm herself down.
right!
And parents!
She couldn't let anything happen to them again.
"Qingcheng's mother! Qingcheng's mother! Are you okay?"
Just as Zhou Ziqin was trying hard to adjust his emotions, the voice of the village chief came to his ears.
Zhou Ziqin suddenly woke up and turned around quickly, just in time to see her mother-in-law sitting on the ground with her eyes wide open.
"mother!"
"Xiaoqin, what's going on? Who's vomiting blood?"
"...Mom, Qingcheng has been rescued and is recuperating in the hospital. I will book a ticket immediately and go over to take care of him."
"I'm going too! My son, he's only twenty-one years old this year."
Vomiting blood at such a young age is not a good sign.
Gu's mother is indeed fierce. Once she starts making a fuss, she is like a "female warrior" who is fearless.
In fact, she still has some inherent "traditions" in her bones - men are the backbone of the family.
She may not even be aware of the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, but she still relies on them out of habit.
When at home, my father is the head of the family.
After getting married, her husband was a coward, so she had to support the family.
However, in her subconscious, she still relied on her husband whom she scolded all the time.
Now, my son has grown up and become the new pillar of the family.
Gu's mother regarded her son as her greatest spiritual support.
But just now, she heard the news that her son was vomiting blood.
Mother Gu's vision went dark and her heart was shaking.
Her legs went weak and she fell to the ground, unable to stand up.
"Mom, don't worry, Qingcheng will be fine."
Zhou Ziqin tried her best to comfort her mother-in-law, but her face was pale and her eyes were filled with tears.
The village chief, the driver and others felt their hearts sink when they saw this: Oh, Qingcheng (Expert Gu)’s condition doesn’t seem to be very good.
They have only heard of stories of people working so hard that they vomit blood in newspapers and at conferences.
I feel that such heroes and models are very far away from me.
I didn't expect that there would be such a role model among the people I know.
People of this era are simple and passionate.
They admire heroes and chase after heroes. They may not be able to reach that level, but they will not laugh at others for being "stupid".
"Comrade Zhou, Expert Gu is sick from exhaustion. Are you going to the grassland to take care of him?"
The driver was deeply moved and looked directly at Zhou Ziqin.
Zhou Ziqin nodded and said, "Qingcheng is still in the hospital. I'm worried. I want to go and see him."
"Then I'll help you book the train ticket!"
The driver puffed out his chest. He might not be able to become a hero, but he could do something for a hero.
As a driver at the diesel engine factory, he still has some connections in the county.
At a time when train tickets are in short supply, drivers should be able to book tickets if they think of a way.
Zhou Ziqin: ...
Although it is not necessary, it is a thoughtful gesture.
"Thank you, comrade!"
"You're welcome. Expert Gu has helped our factory so much, and now he's only doing this for work—"
The driver was a little embarrassed, but he continued to be enthusiastic. "Comrade Zhou, when are you leaving? I'll drive you to the station!"
Zhou Ziqin: ...Of course the sooner the better.
However, this also depends on the time of departure of the train.
And the Gu family—
Just as Zhou Ziqin was thinking about this, Mother Gu said anxiously, "Xiaoqin, I'm going too! I want to go to the grassland and see my Qingcheng!"
"...Okay, Mom, you go too!"
Zhou Ziqin knew that if something like this happened and Gu's mother found out, she would definitely make a fuss.
Zhou Ziqin was not worried about anything else. She was just afraid that once she got to the grassland, her fierce mother-in-law would take the opportunity to attack her!
Zhou Ziqin was not doing this for her second uncle, but because she was afraid that her mother-in-law's crying would affect Gu Qingcheng.
Qingcheng was so tired that he vomited blood, which in itself is a great sentiment of sacrificing himself for the public.
But if the mother-in-law were to cry, make a fuss, and even threaten to commit suicide, it would certainly make people feel that Gu Qingcheng was not so glorious and upright.
Zhou Ziqin is very smart. Once she calms down and regains her sanity, she will think about things more comprehensively.
This is an era that emphasizes sacrifice and advocates dedication.
The candle spirit, the screw spirit... not only requires the individual to be a model of selflessness, but also the family members to have a high enough ideological level.
If the family members do not perform well enough, it will also affect me!
Zhou Ziqin didn't want Gu Qingcheng to vomit blood in vain.
The village chief knew his priorities and didn't care about the money. He took the key and opened the wooden box of the telephone.
The driver rushed over, grabbed the phone and started dialing.
"Director! It's me! Not Comrade Zhou, it's Expert Gu who's in trouble!"
"He was supporting a project on the grassland and ended up vomiting blood from exhaustion."
"Comrade Zhou wants to go to the grassland as soon as possible, you see—"
"Yes! Train tickets to the grassland, preferably a sleeper!"
"Besides Comrade Zhou, there is also Expert Gu's mother."
"Okay! Okay! I'll wait for your reply!"
The driver talked non-stop into the phone.
